Are you in Porto and want to visit Lisbon? Have you thought about how you are going to travel from “Invicta city”, as Porto is called by its people! to Lisbon? Did you know that one of the most spectacular regions of Portugal is on the way between Porto and Lisbon? Turn your transfer into an unforgettable experience visiting some locations in the Center of Portugal and discover a country within the country.
75 km from Porto you will find Aveiro. Visiting Aveiro is the same as diving in the waters of Centro de Portugal. The Aveiro “Ria” began to form during the 15th century, when the shore line moved back and left behind sandpits along an area of eleven thousand hectares which created a lagoon. Nowadays, it has become a real network of canals and islands which has made Aveiro earn the title of “Portuguese Venice”.
Return to the road and head to Ílhavo and before arriving at your hotel in Lisbon, exit the route and head to Costa Nova.

Get on board a moliceiro (Tickets not included) and go along the canals of the lagoon which, just like water roads, lead you through the city. On board, see the Art Nouveau houses which decorate the banks.
When you return to the city centre, you can regain your strength with regional delicacies. If it is almost lunch time, you can try a caldeirada de enguias (eel stew) or a carneiro à lampantana (lampantana lamb). Or, you can get swept away by our regional pastries, in which eggs and sugar are magical, and let ovos moles conquer your taste as if they were little pieces of sweet gold.
Then we follow to Costa Nova. Let yourself be won over by this colourful piece of Portuguese coast. This beach is different because of the wooden houses painted with strips of white and bright colours which used to be haystacks and shelters for fishermen. Right next to it, at Barra beach, you will find the dominant and imposing Barra Light, the tallest lighthouse in Portugal.
Now, it's time to go to Lisbon! You will arrive at your destination carrying the stories you heard through the testimony of your guide, the good mood you felt from the contact of the people from each location you visited and the emotions experienced during this wonderful day that was intended to be just a travel trip, but became an unforgettable experience.
